How long does the formation of a Seychelles IBC take?

The company is registered 24 to 48 hours after your payment, as soon as your documents are complete. The company documents and the apostille follow within another 48 to 96 hours.

What do you need from me?

For every director and shareholder a passport copy and a proof of address, in English or with a translation. Certified copies must not be older than three months. We also need an e-mail address, a phone number and a service address. Our assistant checks your documents before anything is filed.

Are directors and shareholders public?

No. Directors and shareholders of a Seychelles IBC are not shown in a public register or on any certificate of the Registrar.

What happens every year?

Every IBC has to renew its annual licence with the Registrar and its registered agent and registered office service. We remind you several times ahead of the anniversary, ask for updated documents if the law requires them and prepare everything that has to be signed.

Can I move my existing IBC?

Yes, with a change of registered agent. We arrange the transfer for you. It usually takes 5 to 10 working days.

Do I need a nominee director?

No, it is optional. A nominee director acts as the director of record, so that the beneficial owner does not appear in the day to day affairs of the company.

Which law applies to my company?

The International Business Companies Act, 2016, with all its amendments. You can read and search it on this site, section by section, in 11 languages.

How do I pay?

Once, at the end of your order, with the payment methods shown at checkout. There are no hidden fees.
